Someone once said, that no one has ever gone broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people, Cain and Boortz are prime examples, of why this is so true.

Fair Tax vs. Fair share wrote:

One of Boortz's largest contributions will be introducing America to the Fair Tax, a consumption tax that would actually help mend this nation and its dysfunctional politics. All pols should read the book before trying to debate against it or risk coming off sounding dumb (Bachmann).

So Herman Cain immortalizes himself as the most absurd and ridiculous "candidate" in an entire field of loonies in this year's Republican primary. He runs an embarrassingly bad campaign with no real seriousness, yet somehow surges to the top fueled by loopy Tea Party voters. His bizarro bid flames out after repeated allegations of infidelity and sexual harassment. He makes the GOP into a laughingstock with his antics and behavior. And now the conservative media plans to reward him with his very own national radio program? Huh? http://www.sunstateactivist.org

The prediction that the alleged presidential candidates were in fact jockeyiing for jobs as media wingnuts is starting to come true! I'm not sure that Mr. Cain can be quite as satisfactory performing as a hate spewing, repulsive, in-your-face, sneering cretin that Mr. Boortz did, but he has something to aspire to. Good luck with your true vocation, Mr. Cain.

Boortz would have been as popular as Hannity or LImbaugh, except he is a social liberal. I will miss hearing him in the morning.

Never heard of him. But if there's one thing I can't stand it's some rich, fat cat that whines about paying his taxes. Waaaah. You got rich in the land of opportunity. Just shut up and pay your taxes like the rest of us. What can you buy with, say, $60 million that you can't buy with $50 million? Another $10 million house? How much money does one man need? A lot of hard working people are struggling to get by, and would be happy to make a fraction of that, and would be happy to pay taxes on it. So B-O-O-H-O-O.

About time this so called (paid for by the Republican party) nazi got his hitler mind set off the air. The network probably found out he was on the Republican payroll and had to have him removed. He was too much in to Obama. Every day Obama, Obama. He had no other agenta. I think he had a love thing going with Obama. Thank God he'll be off.

Aw, Neal, say it ain't so! But congratulations. I'm glad you told us early so we know we still have some time. And thank you for staying long enough to get us through the election and its aftermath. I'll be glued to the radio in KRMG-land!

Neal is the best talk radio host out there. He is the one person who has keep me sane the last few years. He just makes the hours at work go by so much quicker. Now what am I going to do? Neal I curse you and thank you at the same time. Dam you for leaving, and thanks for last 20 years I've been listening.

Neal...You have "educated" me on political viewpoints, made me laugh at your stories and at times shocked me with your opinions. Thanks! Would have voted for Herman so he will be delightful, funny and thought challenging.
Have Swedish relatives visiting Florida and have encouraged them to visit Naples in Feb. Have any interesting suggestions for them?
Thanks again for all your "educating"!

Why do people continually label Neal Boortz as a conservative? I just don't get it and three minutes of research on him will clearly show he's anything but a conservative and he despises being labeled as such. He's an unabashed Libertarian with liberal social views, which include being pro choice, for the legalization of drugs, treatment (instead of incarceration) of non-violent drug offenders, legalized prostitution and a reduction of our military involvement in worldwide affairs. None of these positions are anywhere near consistent with conservative thought; yet people continually label him as a right winger because he opposes the Obama presidency.

Talk about perfect timing.....I think we all know why Boortz is whimping out at this point in time. It is because he will have to eat crow when Obama is re-elected. I say good riddence to bad rubbish. Thought he was taking his Queen out of the country, when Obama is sworn in again. Don't leave mad, just LEAVE!!!

I'm not surprized to see Neal being put out to pasture. Since President Obama has been in office Neal's show has went down hill. Everyday his subject is the same, I hate this President. At first I tried to continue listening to him, bet eventually it became boring. The only people that continued to listen on a regular basis were the die hard racist, the only problem with them, is most of them don't work and don't have money to spend supporting his advertisers. With that being said, I don't see Herman being around too long with him being black and talking about his silly a$$ 999 plan.
